Cassandra’s POV

Everyone was siding with Laura. She was persuasive and her position made sense.

But I still wasn’t so sure.

I couldn’t shake the feeling that there was more to this than Laura was letting on. She was telling us that she wouldn’t intervene unless we asked her to. But that didn’t negate the fact that she literally COULD call vote whenever she wanted.

I’d come to the restaurant that night so sure that Laura would be exposed as a manipulative liar. I’d been confident that, by the end of the night, she’d be out of our friend group, shunned and exiled for her behaviour.

Clearly though Stella, Jordyn, and even Dillon were taking her side. I wasn’t sure how I felt about that.

Were her intentions sincere? Was she really just trying to look out for us and our company? There was no denying that Laura was a genius. And she did have the ability to see things from an objective point of view, an ability that both Stel

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 428: Unsteady

    Cassandra’s POV The moment I was out of the hotel room, I started shaking. I leaned up against the wall to steady myself. Scenes from the room spun through my head. The crumpled up silk nightie. Dillon shirt. Laura’s slippers. The condom wrapper on the bedside stand. Oh god. There’d been a condom wrapped. I could see it now in my mind’s eye. I’d probably just been too shocked to register it before. The ground felt unsteady under me. The image of Laura, with her naked breasts sitting in bed with Dillon was so fresh and raw in my mind. I squeezed my eyes shut, but I couldn’t get rid of the image. I doubted I’d ever be able to unsee what I saw. That moment would haunt me forever. I was sure of it. How could Dillon do this? And why? I mean, I knew that Laura was probably coming on strong, but I’d trusted Dillon. And yes, I’d been really attracted to Sebastian and hid the truth fr

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 427: Don’t Call Me

    Cassandra’s POV I froze. I couldn’t process what I was seeing at first. Dillon was in the bed, shirtless, the blanket around his waist. Was there…was there someone in the bed with him? What the actual fuck? I looked back down at the pajamas on the floor. They were definitely Laura’s. That was the color I’d bought for her. What were they doing on the floor? “Dillon?” I said, my voice sounding strange to my own ears. I felt like I was underwater. Dillon didn’t move. So I said it louder. There was certainly someone in the bed beside him. I could see the mound of a person under the covers. “DILLON!” I said loudly, still standing at the door. My voice startled him and he bolted upright. He was groggy from being awoken in such a brazen way. He squinted, then he rubbed his eyes. “Oh, hey Cass,” he started, but I cut him off. “Oh hey Cass?”

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 426: Human Nature

    Cassandra’s POV None of us wanted the night to end. We stood and watched the sunrise, plastering the sky in pastels. Jordyn put his arm around my waist and I rested my head on his shoulder. Cam stood behind Stella and wrapped Stella in an embrace, his arms secure around her chest. The bonfire had been the perfect ending to the night. We were all a bit tipsy off champagne and dozy from lack of sleep. And as the daylight came, we all realized what a hot mess we were, in our pajamas. Stella and I had makeup smeared under our eyes from crying and our hair was a disaster. But this only made us laugh even louder. We sat back down by the fire, to watch the last embers burn themselves out. We talked about the wedding, and the rainstorm, the snow, the power outage. Jordyn and I played tic tac toe in the sand with a stick while Cameron and Stella dipped their toes into the ice cold ocean. We were all a bit giddy and punchy, but still, we lingered.

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 425: Beach Bonfire

    Cassandra’s POV It bothered me that Dillon didn’t join us for the beach bonfire. Of course it did. But I tried not to show it. I think it bothered Cam a bit too, since Dillon was his best friend. As soon as we got to the beach, Jordyn set about building a massive bonfire. There was a chill in the air, exacerbated by the cold breeze blowing off the ocean. The beach was vacant though, and we had it all to ourselves. The plan was to sip champagne and wait for the sun to come up. The last time I’d watched the sun rise had been during Dillon’s proposal in the hot air balloon. As the fire crackled, I couldn’t help but think back to the proposal. I’d been so happy, happier than I ever thought I could be. And now things were off between Dillon and me, and he wanted space. I was sure we could fix it. I didn’t know how, but we were too important to each other and we loved each other very much. Relationships can’t be perfect all the time. T

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 424: It Might Be My Last

    Cassandra’s POV I avoided Dillon for the rest of the night, but I plastered a smile on my face for Stella. Dillon and I could sort everything out later. I was sure of it. In the meantime, I had to do my best to have as much fun as I could for the rest of the night. So I slammed back a glass of champagne and hit the dance floor with Jordyn and Cameron. Laura kept lurking around Dillon, but I never saw them alone together for the rest of the night. I HATED that Laura had born witness to our fight. She’d see it as an opportunity to get closer to Dillon. But I couldn’t think about that right now. Stella and Cam cut the wedding cake, and just like out of a movie, she smeared icing all over his face. Which prompted him to chase her, right outside, into the snow. The band played on. People danced. People ate. People drank. I managed to put everything aside and just enjoy what was left of the evening. Even though I felt a stab

  • Divorce and Regret, His Ex-wife is a Billionaire   Chapter 423: Space

    Cassandra’s POV My blood felt cold and there were shivers running up and down my spine. “No.” “Yes.” Jordyn and I said those words at exactly the same time. I felt Jordyn grip my shoulder even tighter. I’d said yes; he’d said no. “Well which is it?” Dillon asked. He was surprisingly calm given the circumstances. I was in shock. Sebastian had texted me? How? Where had he gotten my number? I could only assume that Blaire must have given it to him. But I never, in a million years, expected him to text me. And today of all days. I’d gone through great lengths to ensure that Stella’s wedding day was as stress-free and fun as possible. But now Dillon had seen a text from Sebastian, and I felt everything crumbling around me. “She didn’t cheat on you,” Jordyn said, his voice also calm and steady. “Is that true?” Dillon asked. I didn’t know what to say. Technically, I hadn’t
